Take any notion you have that theatre performances are all about a group of
actors getting up on a stage in front of an auditorium filled with people and
reciting lines, and then throw it out the window.

Legs on the Wall is far from a
conventional theatre group and work hard at pushing the boundaries, going to
some tall heights to do it. They weave music, video, acrobatics, dance and
circus in performances that are sure to leave audiences gasping.

Their latest show was commissioned by Northern Rivers Performing Arts (NORPA) and will have its world premiere in Lismore this weekend before going on to the Sydney Festival.

Patrick Nolan, Artistic Director of Legs on the Wall and Julian Louis, Artistic
Director of NORPA spoke to Joanne Shoebridge who began by asking Patrick if their out of the box ideas are a cultural thing.
